Seattle Machinery Moving

Rigging, moving and setting critical equipment across Seattle.

Equipment moves planned down to the inch

Moving a machine in Seattle usually means tight doorways, old freight elevators, busy streets and a hard deadline. Snell Crane Service plans each move with you: we measure the path, check floor loads, pick the right gantry, skates or forklift, and handle the crane and trucking if the equipment has to leave the building. One project manager runs the move from start to finish.

Industrial, lab and brewery moves

We move equipment for manufacturers in SODO and Georgetown, labs and healthcare facilities, data rooms, and Seattle's many craft breweries. Older buildings can have limited floor capacity and small openings, so we survey every route before move day. When a machine has to go through a roof or wall, we coordinate the crane, permits and trades.

Communities we serve: Seattle, Georgetown, SODO, Ballard, Interbay, South Park, Tukwila, Shoreline

Questions We Hear

Can you move equipment out of an older building with small doors?

Often, yes. We survey the route, and if the machine won't fit, we plan disassembly or a crane lift through a roof or wall opening.

Do you level and anchor machines after the move?

We set and level equipment and coordinate with your installers or the manufacturer's techs for final anchoring and hookup.
